WHO CAN APPLY FOR THE MBA PROGRAMME?

Managers and Directors holding senior management roles for several years without a bachelor degree but holds a BAC+2 or equivalent can still apply for the MBA on the condition to prove they hold a senior managerial position at a multinational or other known local company for 5 years or more through work certificate. This in no way guarantees your application. The International Office at Cardiff Metropolitan University will decide based on your application.

Applicants with no work experience that don’t hold a Bachelor or Master degree will be rejected. 

Students from all study backgrounds can apply to the MBA programme. British education encourages students to discover new paths in their learning and growth. We abide by such value and we offer this programme for students from all backgrounds. Engineers, Doctors, Educators and Business Managers can equally apply to this programme.

The programme gathers heads from different sectors and industries that are looking for an MBA programme to grow their management strategies in their industry. Students can apply their projects to their companies and industries.

For the MBA programme, our age group differs from 25 years old to 55 years old. We encourage more experienced managers and directors to join the programme as it helps brings a diversity of knowledge and experiences into the classroom.

Any missing document can result in your application receiving a conditional offer only. A conditional offer does not mean a rejected application, it only means that you must submit any missing document highlighted by the admissions office. Failure to submit the missing documents will result in a rejected application. For example, missing a high school diploma/ A levels for a Bachelor programme applicant.
  • Applicants with the Unconditional offer are able to receive their acceptance letter and start the programme of their application without further submissions.
  • The university in the UK has the right to reject an application if the applicant is not eligible for the course, for example, a Bachelor or MBA applicant application can be rejected due to a failure of the Oxford Placement test (SIST Admission test).
  • Eligible students that meet entry requirements but fail the Oxford placement test are advised to take the Foundation Year programme to re-apply the following year for the Bachelor programme.
